A Wet Weekend filled with Fun, Frolic n Intellectual Talks!!!

After a week's mourning; I spared my time for the International Conference organized by my office in association with the best management institute of the state...

The conference was for 1.5 days (during the weekend); and these days helped me to learn many things again for Team Building, Time and People Management, helped me to gel well with people...so on and so forth...

Friday evening we went to the venue and helped the team members to prepare the kits for the delegates, the badges and other plans.....who will do what and how...that was a good time we spent together barring the interruptions by few unwanted people in the group. And now here arrives the first day of the conference...I must say I really enjoyed the whole day...when we were about to arrange our welcome desk...people started coming in and registering themselves...we dint had breakfast:( and my adorable friend from office brought pastries especially for me n my colleague (thanx dear) and that time we had our breakfast.....same queuing up of conference delegates was there....we were happy the way the numbers were growing despite the count of people leaving the conference.....

We dint had lunch as the breakfast helped us to live up till evening tea and it was time when we had tea along with sandwiches...i was happy reaching home a little early on the DAY ONE of the conference and then immediately making things ready for the DAY TWO of the conference.

With full excitement we reached at the venue and to my surprise my duty for today was fully changed and I enjoyed attending the conference while fulfilling my responsibilities for today. During the conference I was also enjoyed chatting with my friend.

Hey, did I tell you it was a birthday of my colleague which to his surprise we celebrated with full zeal and enthusiasm (actually enthu was to spread cake on his face) and yeah, we did it...during this ceremony few people were missing:( and finally we called it a day off after a little girls walk/talk/shopping and then back home.

But the day doesnt ends here; immediately after the clock strucked bang for the midnight and Rain God poured his blessings on us with full power and I and my sister enjoyed his blessing for an hour getting ourselves drenched in the rain while having a stroll in the society down where no one was there and the only voice was of the water droplets on the road and our playing and splashing water on each other.

Hahahahahah.....now we are back home, had bath and night tea and keying-in my experiences for a lovely weekend:).

Restructure your Corporate Model

This is a common scenario with the corporate houses where the organizational structures are re-aligned for smoother operations in an organization. There are many compromises the Company has to do as per the requirements of the NEW management. One of the challenges faced by them would be studying the work graph of the employees and make them adjust in the new environment and accept the changes. It is said that changes are inevitable but changes should be accepted with open hands by the employees. The companies should come out of the shell of the BIG CORPORATE and should study their own SWOT and act on; the action and the analysis areas may be inside or outside their pre-determined shell. There can be lot many reasons for restructuring…be it less performance, all talks- no work, only work---no talks, no clear goal, no direction, no decision….and many more…everyone needs a change and a better change. With the advent of restructuring in the company the employee would be little skeptical as

FISH Philosophy!!!

Sometime back my colleague gave a presentation on the FISH Philosophy; it is a theory from John Christensen; which was derived by placing cameras in fish market to study the behaviour of workers working actively. As the book suggests, “When we choose to love the work we do, we can catch our limit of happiness, meaning and fulfillment every day.” The study shows how 75% of normal human life is consumed in work related areas as going to office, spending time in working and other such meagre activities and by the time Friday appears everyone sighs and says “Thank God its Friday” and gives their 100% of the energy. The promoters and writer proudly shares that this book will benefit the managers which will indeed increase employee retention and motivate people to take pride in what they do; so it says no work is small you should perform your duties with pride and enthusiasm. The story is a parable; an invented story about finding the deep source of energy, creativity and passion that exists

Building Bully- Free Workplace

In the dynamic realm of the workplace, collaboration and teamwork are crucial for success. However, sometimes this spirit of cooperation takes a dark turn when employees gang up against one particular team member. During a recent one-on-one session with a team member, I came to realize the immense importance of understanding and practicing concepts like empathy, sympathy, privacy, and secrecy. These terms may be interconnected, but they each hold their own significance. It is disheartening to witness team members struggling to fit into the competitive nature of the workplace. Do they not have their own individuality and unique perspectives? Should they not possess their own strong will? Numerous questions arise in light of this. Why do people gang up against a particular team member? Why do they feel entitled to delve into their personal issues? Can't they control their curiosity and focus on their own responsibilities? Why make fun of someone who is already going through emotional
